Kolapo Olapoju Poet Free verse

Suicidal Notes

My misery knows no bounds
my sorrows keep piling
my despair has become too obvious
my flowing tears hinder my sight


In my distress,i see no one
the agony of getting left behind
has caused me to bail out on life

I work double of the normal
but i get half my rewards
I'm surrounded by riches 
but my pocket is a dry well

When i try to take just a step
Obstacles spring up from nowhere

Mama nature has shown me its back
She has placed her fat ass on me
Forward has become an irony

with nothing to gain and a lot to loose
I've become an overstayed visitor
in this God forsaken entity

Tonight,i'll bow and take the plunge
into the eternal abyss of damnation

Chuck Keys October 4, 2010 at 10:20 AM intense pain. hopefully this is not about you. i think many of us, writers too, have deep feelings of highs and lows - the task in life is to find the middle ground, where everything is level, more understandable. you are not alone at PoetrySoup. great write, thank you, chuck
